Civil Works
After identifying and determining where to drill, the site must be cleared and prepared for excavating. Several hazards related to leveling, excavating, digging, and trenching have to be worked around. During site preparation, construction workers first clear a road to the site and, if needed, level the specific work site where drilling will occur using bulldozers and/or graders. There are many important aspects of high-quality civil construction for oil and gas facilities.
